Bad link. FFS ALWAYS check if the links you post anywhere works! - I'm senior webdev and know the importance of always checking posted links. Learned the hard way.

I can with wizardry deduct the right url from the bad double url, but would be better if the link is corrected so anyone can view the link you posted.

EDIT: (If) you can not edit the OP then delete it and make new better one.

EDIT2: I need to register to read the paper!

Did you mean to post an explanation of your understanding of the paper?

eternal-abyss-77 OP t1_iwfpfz7 wrote

Sir, firstly thanks for responding.

I already have implemented this as a working program. But now I am enhancing it, and I have some feeling that I somehow am missing something from the paper, and not understanding it properly.

For example:

The equations [2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 15-18] in pages 3, 4 and 5

The training of the model with generated features with Linear LSE mentioned in page 6-7

And section B Local pixel difference descriptor, para 2 regarding directions. And it's related figures, Figure 3(a,b).

If you can explain these things, i can effectively understand your explanation and ask my doubts wrt my present work on this paper, with code.

Ok I'll ask you exactly what i don't understand.

In equations 2 and 4 there is I which represents Identity matrix right?

So if let's say l = 2 and N = 7

Now will the shift matrix be like

[ 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 ]

If yes, then

[ I  -I ]
[-I   I ]

Should be of the form,

[ 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ -1 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 ]

Or

[ 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 ]
[ 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 ]
[ -1 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 ]

?

Be it horizontal shift or vertical shift.

And what do they mean by rotations here : 0°, 45°, 90°, 135° ?

Because I'm extending this idea, so I am asking community help, perspectives, opinions and understandings, so I may not be wrongly understanding math.

Yes, I is the identity matrix.

The shift matrix, H, will not have a row or column with only zeros in it. If l is 2 and N is 7 then H(1, 3) (1 based) will be a 1 and the start of a diagonal.

You have similarly misunderstood equation 4. There will not be a row or column with only 0s in it.

The authors do not mention rotation at all in this paper. They do mention that gradients are computed along those directions by the pixel differences.

Hl is this

[ 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 ]

I - Hl is ?

[ 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ]
[ -1 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 ]

Or

[ 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 ]
[ 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 ]
[ -1 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 ]

?

Show me how the matrix is written

And elaborate this:

I dont follow what you are showing with those matrices. You should actually ask a question.

Are you stating what H x I is? If so, you are using the same definition in your original question which i just said was wrong. I could have been more specific about H: each row and xolumn will have exactly one occurance of a 1 and N-1 zeros.

H =

0 0 1 0 0 0 0

0 0 0 1 0 0 0

0 0 0 0 1 0 0

0 0 0 0 0 1 0

0 0 0 0 0 0 1

1 0 0 0 0 0 0

0 1 0 0 0 0 0

for l =2,N=7

Do you know how to subtract matrices from one another? The second and third matrix you show suggests you don't.

Im not sure what to elaborate on regarding the rotation that the authors dont mention in their paper. I could talk for hours about rotations, pixel differences, numerical gradients etc. Im not just going to ramble on without context. What do you want to know?

eternal-abyss-77 OP t1_iwg7mjm wrote

I am asking what is

I - H is?

I get the same H as you say, but what is the matrix we get after I - H? Is it a mirror of H? As in paper, they said

I  -I
-I  I

So, the I in I-H is, normal identity matrix where major diagonal elements are 1 or is it mirror of H

eternal-abyss-77 OP t1_iwjvpds wrote

So I - HL will be

[ 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 ]
[ 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 ]
[ 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 ]
[ 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 ]
[ -1 0 0 0 0 1 0 ]
[ 0 -1 0 0 0 0 1 ]

This. And same goes for I - VL

Fine.

What do they mean by those rotations?
